The Telegraph: 'Priest' Review

The Telegraph: There’s nothing Paul Bettany can do in Priest. Well, nothing except hurl crucifix throwing-stars at flesh-eating ghouls, ride retro-futuristic motorbikes with a warrior-cassock flapping behind him, leap into the air using falling rocks, and grimace. This is all a lot less fun than it sounds . Clawing away under its 3D dinge and slick but desensitising effects, the movie is deadly, even when it’s cool – a comic-book adaptation ruthlessly shorn of the word “comic”.
